What Are The Problems Associated With Twisted Colon?

I just had a colonoscopy today, and all though groggy, he did say that I had a twisted colon. That was that and I was released as the sedition was wearing off, just wondering what this meant. I can t seem to find much good information on the internet. Thanks, any input will help, I did have my gallbladder removed just a year ago and that didn t help any of the problems I was having. Thanks, Kathy
